  1. MOTIVATION

  2. WHAT IS MOTIVATION? • Motivation is the inner power or energy that pushes one towards performing a certain action. • Motivation is one of most important keys to success • Motivation strengthens the ambition, increases initiative and gives direction, courage, energy and the persistence to follow one's goals. • Motivation is a powerful tool in the work environment that can lead to employees working at their most efficient levels of production.

  3. Why motivation? • Shift from usual managerial practices to modern and behavioral approach in management. • Creation of better organizational quality through promotion of mutual understanding and thinking and decision making process. • Promotion of workers’ interest in work and office by reducing or removing hurdles. • Making the subordinate feel that he is good enough for a superior position and he/she can rise higher in the ladder.

  4. Motivation a Managerial Function • Motivation is widely seen as a Managerial function. • Motivation is pivot around which every other aspect of management revolves. • The managers themselves must be motivated and should be capable of motivating others. • Managers should set an example for others. This will encourage his staff to work harder to give MAXIMUM output.

  5. How to Motivate the people? • Recognize the people • Include them • Encourage them • Train them • Ask their opinion • Praise them • Guide and Allow them to take decisions • Share the glory with them • Convey your belief in their abilities • Engage them , challenge them, invite their input and encourage their cooperation People work for money but go extra mile for recognition and praise before others

  6. Myths in Motivation Myth #1 --"I can motivate people” Not really -- they have to motivate themselves. Employees have to motivate and empower themselves. However, you can set up an environment where they best motivate and empower themselves. Myth #2 -- "Money is a good motivator“ Not really. Certain things like money, a nice office and job security can help people from becoming less motivated, but they usually don't help people to become more motivated. A key goal is to understand the motivations of each of your employees. Myth #3 -- "Fear is a good motivator" Fear is a great motivator -- for a very short time. That's why a lot of yelling from the boss won't seem to "light a spark under employees" for a very long time.

  7. Encouraging environment • Fair and equal treatment • Clear objectives • Rewarding good work • Cohesive group • Approachable management • Managers supporting staff

  8. Discouraging environment • People treated differently • None, or conflicting objectives • Good work going unnoticed • Group at odds with each other • Management won’t listen • Managers 'owning' staff  >>>

  9. Enhancement of motivation • Set a goal and split it into several minor goals. The goal would seem more feasible and easier to accomplish. • Understand that finishing what you start is important. Hammer into your mind that whatever you start you have to finish. Develop the habit of going to the finish line. • Socialize with others of similar interest. Motivation and positive attitudes are communicable. Associate with motivated people, who share your interests.
